Smoke

Poison fills my lungs
A sweet burn in my chest
Inhale
Exhale
The smoke leaves my lips.

Another long drag
Ash blowing with the wind
Inhale
Exhale
The smoke gives me a lift.

The ember dies down
And the filter is all that remains
Inhale
Exhale
The smoke causes me to drift

I picked up the habit of smoking cigarettes and I've been wanting to write this poem since I started.
